 Educator Usage

PlayPosit offers teachers an easy way to enhance video lessons and content with interactive assessments.

Adding pauses at regular intervals is a great way to break up a long session of narration or talking. ome students could be put off by too many breaks in a video, encouraging them to watch and listen more actively. If you're creating your own videos or screencasts, it's also a good idea to plan around these pauses so that audio breaks fall at natural conclusions, rather than in the middle of a sentence or concept. 

Many teachers have great success using a flipped-class model but might still struggle with knowing whether students have actually watched the videos before class. This tool can help capture that information, and it can help teachers take stock of how well students internalize essential information from a video. A tool like PlayPosit could be a stellar resource for the flipped classroom.
